Redesign of stories section

Thanks for pointing out this bug. The disappearing search button for guests was also a bug. Should now be fixed.

Reference to admin comment

Fantasy Feeder has been around since 2003, and we've always been a website for fat chat, size acceptance and feederism. That's not something that's going to change.

We have a set of website rules (fantasyfeeder.com/about/rules) and if you stick to them you shouldn't get booted. We don't actually want to boot anyone and people that do get booted are nearly always given a second (and sometimes third) chance. The exception tends to be trolls who have no interest in the website and just come here to disrupt things. We certainly don't follow the 'Twitter mob' mentality of accusation equals guilt, and we look for evidence in all cases. Overall we try to be as tolerant and accepting as we can, and encourage this amongst our membership.

One of our rules is that basic accounts are for non-commercial use only. We have official channels for members who want to make some money here such as the Earnings Accounts (fantasyfeeder.com/about/commission) and banner advertising (fantasyfeeder.com/about/advertising). These help the website cover the cost of maintenance and improvements. We do allow liks to paysites in member's profiles, so long as it's in the spirit of 'this is who I am and what I do', rather than blatent advertising. This is one reason why there tend to be less gold diggers here than on other sites. That constant pestering for money by some members is just annoyiong and interrupts the genuine conversations that go on.

One idea I've been considering is some kind of member verification system. Part of this might flag up if you are a web model or trying to make money online. That's not to imply that this is in any way a bad thing, it would just be to let members know that this is the case. How does this sound as an idea?

Sextortion scam

A member has recently reported that they received an email, containing a genuine password used on this website, stating that a virus was installed on their device that took video of them watching porn. The email then demands money, threatening to send the video to all their contacts.

Please be aware that this email is a scam and don't, whatever you do, send them any money. The scary thing about this email is that it contains a genuine password that they've managed to get hold of through a legacy data breach on another website. I've received email like this myself and just deleted them without consequence. You can read more about the scam on the Action Fraud website at actionfraud.police.uk/alert/alert-cyber-criminals-send-victims-their-own-passwords-in-new-sextortion-scam

The website recommends that you don't pay them anything, change your password, update your browser and applications to the latest versions and report the email to them. Always choose a unique and strong password for your Fantasy Feeder account.

Option to turn off private messaging

StarSmoke:
I've been repeating myself about this for years now... GIVE US MESSAGE PREVIEWS! Why don't we get to read he first couple lines in messages to determine if they are worth our time to open them or not?


I can see this would be useful and sorry that you're frustrated about it. It's just takes time to go around all the various sections making improvements. The messaging section will get to the top of my development again eventually smiley

Yes, you may protect the copyright of your pics or videos with a watermark, so long as it's not advertising a paysite (for example watermarking with the domain name of a paysite wouldn't be allowed).

New story section is broken on mobile for android

I'm a bit baffled by this because the links to view stories on the listing page are just simple hyperlinks, as used all around the web. There's nothing magical about them. Try a page refresh if you haven't already and double check the URL e.g. fantasyfeeder.com/stories.

I'd be interested to hear if anyone else has this problem.

Why does every feature i see added to this site always make it worse

karenjenk:
Why reinvent the wheel.
i like the previous way


There were several reasons for this:

* We need to encourage more members to join the website. One way to do this is to show that we have lots of good content, therefore it's important to show our best stories first (like a shop window). Existing members who are more familiar with the website can easily set up a search to find what they want.

* It removes 'clutter' from the page which makes things easier for mobile users where space is at a premium. The most important information is shown first i.e. the page title, description and thumbnail. The supplementary metadata is still available, but it's secondary. This makes it easier to quickly scan the stories for something that seems interesting, without the important information being lost in the mix. Of course, some people may still prefer it the old way because it's down to personal preference, but I'm trying to cater for the majority of members.

* To be fair to authors, those who have spent many hours creating good quality stories, should have their stories shown in precedent over those that have not spent very long. This should improve the quality of stories overall as authors try to get their stories up the rankings. This is in response to a previous forum thread where members were complaining that the quality of the stories seemed to be going down.

Why does every feature i see added to this site always make it worse

FA guy:
I think the stories section is less mobile friendly than ever. Now it doesn't show what stories have new chapters so you have to go through and check each story you're following to see if they've been updated since last time.


Try using the 'following' feature to follow the author. You'll get a notification when a new story or chapter is added.
